TO ALL'WI-IOM IT MAY CONCERN:

Be it known that I, CHRISTIAN R001), of Middletown, in the county of Dauphin, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented an improved Ash-Tub or BOX; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification- Figure 1 being an end view of the stand. A l

Figure 2, an end view of' the lye-conducting spout.

Figure 3, an end view of the tub or box.

Figure 4, a side vien of all the parts in pla-ce together.

Figure 5, n. transverse vertical section ofthe whole.

Like letters designate corresponding parts in all the figures.

First, I make-stand A, of {fourcross-legs,v two et each end. connected by a bar, d, the tenons 1 a ci' which pass through the cross-legs, and are held by keys substantially as represented. It can thus be taken apart and pnt together at pleasure. I i 4 Second. `The lye-spout B is made of two strips of board or wood b nailed together at the lower edges, and a head,l g, nailed ou one end. The other end ,is open for the discharge of the lye. It is placed in the uppei angle ofv the stand, substantially as shown, so that its open end will project and form a. discharge-spout.

Third. The ash-tub or box C is made of two side strips of board, fitted near together at their lower edges, and two heads nailed to the ends. At the loner edges there is a little space left between the sides, as at c, to allow the lye to escapedownward 4into the spout. Cleats It are attached to the lower surfaces of the sides, and so arranged that when -the hex is placed on the stand they1 will rest on the upper edges of thecross-lcgs thereof, and their lower ends rest on the upper edges of the spout, `snbstrmtially as represented, so that the box is held up in the right position, leaving the spout open for the passage ofthe lye.

Annali-box thus constructed is very cheap, simple, and e'cctive and convenient, and can be made by any one in a short time.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by.Letters Patent, s

An ash-tub or box, constructed and arranged substantially as herein specified.

The above specification .of my improved ash-tub'or box signed by ine this 18th' day of February, 1867.

CHRISTIAN BOOP.
